CHA Educational Tours Celebrates 45 Years by Freezing 2013 Prices

Longstanding Group Travel Company Is Also Offering Fall Savings on 2014 Travel


PHILADELPHIA, PA--(Marketwired - Sep 26, 2013) - CHA Educational Tours, one of the country's leading student group travel companies, is celebrating its 45th anniversary by giving a gift to its travelers: it has frozen all tour prices from its 2013 catalog for travel in 2014. Additionally, CHA is offering Fall Saver discounts of up to $150 to tour groups who book early for 2014.

"This is a company milestone, and a reminder of CHA's strength and stability in the field of student group travel. What better way to celebrate than by keeping tour prices exactly the same for 2014?" says Domenica Falcione, president and co-founder of CHA Educational Tours. "This is unprecedented for CHA and a great way to say thank you to our loyal clients. By not increasing prices, we're also hoping to encourage new groups to take advantage of educational travel this school year."

In addition, with CHA's 2014 Fall Saver program, group leaders who book 2014 travel by November 1 (for winter and spring tours) or December 1 (for summer tours) will save travelers $50 each for trips up to 11 days, $100 on tours from 12-17 days, or $150 on itineraries of 18 days or longer. This means teachers can increase the size of their tour group while saving money for each student.

Educational tours serve as a "living classroom" that broaden knowledge and cultural understanding beyond textbooks. Language teachers, in particular, find group travel to be beneficial to their students; however, history, social studies and humanities teachers also embrace educational tours to foreign countries.

As before, CHA Educational Tours is offering over 120 educational tour itineraries to destinations worldwide. Spain, France and Italy remain its top destinations, but Falcione says multi-country tours are increasingly popular since teachers in different disciplines can get together and combine their classes for an even more enriching travel experience.
